The galactic center environment

TL;DR: The central half kiloparsec region of our Galaxy harbors a variety of phenomena unique to the central environment as mentioned in this paper, such as large densities, large velocity dispersions, high temperatures, and apparently strong magnetic fields.
Journal ArticleDOI

Explaining the spectrum of Sagittarius-A* with a model of an accreting black-hole

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a new model of accretion onto Sagittarius A*, in which most of the energy released is carried along with the gas and lost into the black hole of mass ∼7 x 105 solar masses, rather than appearing as radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radio Variability of Sagittarius A* - A 106 Day Cycle

TL;DR: In this article, the presence of a 106-day cycle in the radio variability of Sgr A* was reported based on an analysis of data observed with the Very Large Array (VLA) over the past 20 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

New structures near the compact radio source at the galactic centre

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented high-resolution (<0.2 arcsec) radio images, made at 2-cm wavelength, of the central arcsecond of the Galaxy.

Observations of the motion and distribution of the ionized gas in the central parsec of the galaxy. II

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used infrared fine-structure line emission from compact clouds of ionized gas within Sgr A West to derive a most probable mass distribution of the clouds.

Forbidden into Ne II observations of the galactic center Evidence for a massive black hole

TL;DR: The velocity field within two pc of the galactic center has been investigated by observing the forbidden Ne II 12.8 micron fine-structure emission from Sgr West.
